Tips to find a great nanny without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced nannies with 10+ years. References matter more than years.
  • Consider a share. If your kids are similar ages and you live near another family, a share is the single biggest cost reduction available without compromising on care.
  • Be specific about hours upfront. Most nannies will take a slightly lower rate for a guaranteed steady schedule than for a higher-rate, unpredictable one.
  • Bundle benefits thoughtfully. Two weeks PTO, a health stipend, transit passes, education assistance, or an annual raise commitment can help close the gap with families offering a higher hourly rate.
  • Match rate to responsibilities. A higher rate often makes sense once you add cooking, errands, or driving. Don't compare apples to oranges across listings.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable childcare provider who genuinely loves working with kids. I currently work as a Lead Infant Teacher, caring for babies and toddlers through their daily routines while creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment.

Before that, I spent six years as a paraprofessional and Behavior Technician, working one-on-one and in small groups with children, including those with autism. I love watching children grow, gain confidence, and reach new milestones through play and everyday learning.

I’m also currently earning my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a concentration in Child and Adolescent Development, which helps me better understand and support children’s growth.

When I’m not working, I enjoy reading and creative projects. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide loving, reliable care for your little one(s)!

A little bit about me

My name is Maria I’ve been a nanny since 2016, the year I decided to move to USA by myself. Since then I’ve worked as a nanny for multiple families, I like to help families not just with the kids but all that comes with managing a house (light house work, cleaning after the kids, running errands, etc) I used to do it full time but now I have my own family and my own baby who I need to take care of too, that’s why I’m looking for a part time position. I’m also bilingual (Spanish and English speaker) I have a valid DL and my own car. Hopefully I can find a family soon to make their life easier (I know how hard the house work can turn )

A little bit about me

Hello, I'm Idalia! I've been nannying professionally for 6 years now, and doing childcare work since I was 15. For the past few years I've had the pleasure of taking care of some amazing kids. From infant care to toddler care, I've had my handful of experiences.
My main care style is gentle-parenting focused on setting boundaries and working toward self-growth. Building up a child's self-esteem through emotional, self regulation is something I find very important. We'll work toward problem solving, practical life lessons, and self-regulating exercises.
I look forward to working with a family that is communicative about their child's needs, setting clear boundaries, and child care expectations. Look forward to working as a team to provide the best experience for your child(ren).

A little bit about me

hey im maria, i grew up always taking care of my siblings, cousins etc. i love the ability i have with kids. Kids love me, i have lots of patience and love towards kids so why not actually get payed for it you know. I’m currently a senior in high school and im just tryna save up while not working so hard so i can still have time to get my work done, yet feel like im actually helping others. After high school i was thinking on doing the travel nurse route, I love new experiences and js new everything. So as im traveling and seeing new things im also treating people and making new memories with people. Thats all I wanna do really is js experience life, and my quote in life is “ live to love” if you don’t love everying that surrounds you than are you really living ??. I also have an autistic brother, so I get my way around them. I understand their needs and wants. He’s very picky due to him having a sensor thingy, so I usually cook for him by the way im a very good cook if I say so myself
